Alright, heres a little segmint i plan in doing more often. Tips for living good with no $$!
Eating cheap- lunches.
ok, so we're all poor right now, and like most of you, im going to school and working and trying to squeeze every penny. I have figured out that i can eat lunch for pretty cheap if i bring my lunch! lets add it up-
so i bought a 2 lbs loaf of sour dough sandwich cut at the farmers market for $3. I also bought 2 lbs of apples for $1 per lbs (so $2), and 2 lbs of tangerines at 1.50 per lbs ($3). so for $8 i have most of my lunch.
then at winco i picked up some bologna ($2) and turkey (3.50) and a pack of sugar snap peas ($3).
After that i headed to Trader Joes for some awsome cheesey poofs, low fat and nummy, huge bag for $2.
Sp lets add it up, $8 at farmers market, $8.50 at winco and $2 at TJ's. $18.50 for alittle over 5 days of food (for me anyway!) Soooo....
$3.70 a day for lunches. ;) pretty good to me! cheaper then the minimeals! and half the calories
food,
poor girl
